About Ida

Ida Terry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 22 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through addiction, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, and major life changes. She creates a culturally responsive space where people can explore painful experiences, address anger and resentment, and take practical steps toward healing and transformation. Ida emphasizes a growth-oriented mindset tailored to each person's goals and readiness for change.

She is dually licensed as a Professional Counselor and an Alcohol Counselor and integrates behavioral and collaborative therapies with faith-informed perspectives when clients choose that emphasis. Her formal training includes a Master of Arts in Counseling, a two-year advanced certificate in Internal Family Systems theory, and a certificate of achievement in addiction treatment for military and veteran culture. This combination of education and focused addiction training supports her work with diverse populations, including veterans, first responders, and blended families.

Terry works collaboratively and strategically with clients, honoring cultural values while applying practical, evidence-informed methods to address issues such as substance use, family conflict, trauma, depression, intimacy concerns, and coping with life transitions. She approaches each client as a partner in the therapeutic process and looks forward to working collaboratively with those seeking growth and restoration.

Approach-Focused Care Delivered Online

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist follows the client's lead, helping people clarify values, build self-worth, and make choices that fit their lives. This approach is useful for clients seeking acceptance and a collaborative space to explore identity, grief, or relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to mood and anxiety symptoms. It offers practical tools for managing depression, anxiety, addiction triggers, and Anger-related responses through skills practice and problem-solving.

Existential Therapy invites clients to examine meaning, responsibility, and life direction, supporting people facing life transitions, questions of purpose, or complex losses. Ida Terry draws on these approaches to tailor sessions to each person's needs and goals, working together to determine the best fit based on preferences and presenting concerns.

Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides flexibility for clients with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or geographic limits. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, try different session formats, and access licensed professionals from wherever the client is located.
